Hyundai Sonata Electrical System Safety Report | July 20, 2011
Reported on July 20, 2011
| WIFE ACTIVATED THE HORN TO GET MY ATTENTION. IT SOUNDED ONE SHORT BEEP AND WENT DEAD. HAS NOT WORKED SINCE. HORN CAN HARDLY BE HEARD STANDING NEXT THE CAR LET ALONE TRYING TO GET SOMEONE'S ATTENTION INSIDE A VEHICLE WITH THE WINDOWS ROLLED UP AND THE RADIO ON. THE OTHER PERSON WOULD NEVER HEAR IT. HYUNDAI SHOULD REPLACE THESE HORNS WITH SOMETHING THAT CAN BE HEARD IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION AND NOT SOUND LIKE A HORN ON A TOY SCOOTER. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SOUND OR FAILURE OF THESE HORNS ON THE INTERNET FORUMS. | |
